Lyrics
Collar up and shoulders back The streetlights know my name Hands in my pockets, easy stride Nothing here to tame The city's quiet, wet and warm The pavement's like a stage I've got a tune inside my head And nowhere else to be, I'd say Walk like you own the midnight Slow and sure and free Walk like you own the midnight The night belongs to me A cab goes by, I wave it on I like the walk tonight Every puddle holds a moon And every moon holds light Walk like you own the midnight Slow and sure and free Walk like you own the midnight The night belongs to me No hurry in my footsteps No worry in my chest A cool and quiet swagger Is the best thing, I confess Walk like you own the midnight Slow and sure and free Walk like you own the midnight The night belongs to me Walk like you own the midnight Easy, slow and free
